cookie with empty string as value

Hi ALL!
I faced with following problem. I use module CGI::Fast to develop
webapp. With help of this package I can successfully store and retrive
cookies. But I found strange behaviour when stored cookie has empty
string as value. In this case browser sends cookie to CGI (I checked
this with help of HTTP sniffer and in %ENV{HTTP_COOKIE}) but when I try
to get this cookie in my code I retrive not defined value. IMHO this is
wrong behaviour because empty string and not defined cookie are
different things. Can anybody tell me where I wrong?

Best regards,

Dmitry
